Summary
[I accidentally got engaged to the evil owl-goddess who is obsessed with the number-three and now I have to make weapons for our new adventuring guild].
In an era in which ancient gods live in the world’s cities together with their mortal followers, forming tight-knit guilds and powerful temples, the disfigured ash-caster and blacksmith Hineni has lived his entire life as a reclusive outcast. Hidden away behind layers of clothing and just as many walls and doors, he only ever leaves the house in the dead of night, so that neither the gods or anyone else can ever see him.
However, on one of these night-tide outings, he finds that has gained the unwanted attention of what is seemingly a perfectly normal owl, and through his unwitting efforts at simply filling his nights with acts of personal meaning, he ends up promising himself to a creature that is perhaps even less versed in human ways than he himself is. He is a mysterious, odd owl-goddess that nobody seems to have ever heard of, Obscura.
Hineni, having had no greater purpose in life until now, finds himself willing to accept this turn of events and dedicates himself to creating a brand new adventuring guild, under the watchful eyes of the ancient entity Obscura, who has only one, clear, proclaimed goal—
To hunt the BIG FROG! BIG FROG! BIG!
Weaponsmith is a slice-of-life litRPG [soft romance] with base/guild-building.

funny story and great narrator
Good story voiced by Hollie Jackson. characters are well introduced and have interesting personalities. listened to over 3days and enjoyed it greatly.
only gripe is that it suffers from the same thing all converted serial story do, no ending it just trials off with nothing really resolved.

very VERY strange, but well made and interesting
I'm writing this after reading the entire finished trilogy.
if you want fast paced action and all your classic fantasy tropes with a hero and villeins and so on... go else where. this is a slice of life story about gods, old magic, home making, love and friendship. the story is EXTREMLY complex, almost psychedelic, with enough dream like qualities to make your head spin, but ultimately it does work and you come out of it feeling fulfilled.
I love that this book feels like almost every other normal litrpg is happening in the back ground, they just arn't what this book is about. but it also has a lot more complex storylines than your average slice of life fantasy book. I would say that the first two books are good casual reads, they really are part 1 and 2 of a slice of life story with fairy tale elements, then book 3 kicks everything into high gear and ties everything up neatly in a fulfilling way. the episodic feel of each chapter makes it a good book for just picking up every now and then, not really the most bingeable work ever. the narration is also very good. I highly recommend this book, but it won't be for everyone, and its really for people that are looking for something completely new, like my self, as a brake from the norm.
